Atari Adventure Square Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I went nuts when Man From Atlantis first aired. I think it was a TV movie/Pilot that came into a (very) short-lived series. 13 eps in all, was it? This impresses me because my mind eye's recalls a full-blown state of fandom during that time. Had the Marvel comics of it, drew gill-fingered figures jumping out of the water in mock comic book covers, told everyone about it, impressed nearly no one. That's when I learned the harsh realities of living as a bilingual person in a francophone town. But it became a plus as, having no one to contradict the wonderfulness felt from a show or movie, you can inhabit your own sense of it long enough that it becomes an impregnable concept. Such as - I loved Logan's Run then and now and no one's critical reviews of it will ever tarnish that sense of comfort I get from it. True of numerous media outputs of the era. But inhabiting the Man From Atlantis hero-worship had its concussive repercussions. I took to doing the dolphin-swim in every swimming pool. Ended up conking my head a few times on the pliable but sturdy surface of many outdoor pools. But when I hit my head on the local indoor tiled surface...I ceased to believe a boy can swim like the fishes. yeah...and I will also not be seeking Sanctuary any time soon. 70s TV was truly the best time of my viewership.

I told my wife this, but she thought I made it up. But according to the internet, I am correct! For once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
